TAIAO Division 2 - North (6 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Sam Tarrant Turns in Season-Best Performance
Sam Tarrant produced his most outstanding game to date while leading King's Academy to the win on Thursday. Tarrant rushed for 226 yards and four touchdowns on only nine carries, and also threw for 73 yards and a touchdown. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (108.9). Those 226 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
The win for King's Academy keeps them at an undefeated 8-0. Tarrant and King's Academy are on the road again on Friday to play Leverett's Chapel at 7:00 p.m.
Gamescore: 90.12
Luke Hindman was a major factor in Stephenville FAITH's victory over Newman International Academy on Friday. Hindman did his part (and then some), rushing for 118 yards and four touchdowns on only ten carries, while also throwing for 109 yards and two touchdowns on only seven passes for the 'W'.
For the season, Hindman has thrown 5 touchdowns while averaging 74 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.25 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 93.25 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 82.17
Stafford Posts Huge Game in 80-30 Victory
Caiden Stafford's big game helped extend King's Academy's winning streak to eight on Thursday. Trinity School of Texas had no answer to Stafford as he rushed for 103 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 37 receiving yards and a touchdown. Those 103 rushing yards gave Stafford a new career-high.
Stafford and King's Academy will be staying on the road on Friday to face off against Leverett's Chapel at 7:00 p.m. The last time Stafford took on the Lions, he picked up 109 receiving yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 54.45
Daxton Reeves and Co. Win Third in a Row
Daxton Reeves's big game helped extend Harvest Christian Academy's winning streak to three on Friday. Reeves was dynamite, making two total tackles and defending two passes. He also hauled in five receiving touchdowns, which is notable because Harvest Christian Academy is undefeated when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns, but 1-4 otherwise.
Harvest Christian Academy is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a massive bump to their 4-4 record this season. Reeves and Harvest Christian Academy will take on CHANT HomeSchool at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
